Political Compass

Economic Left/Right: -6.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -3.13
[PokeCommunity.com] Political Compass


Close enough as far as I'm concerned. Tests like these don't really capture the finer nuances of people's political leanings.
 
Economic Left/Right: -5.75
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.05

what Live said. :o
I think this is about where I ended up when we did this for Government class.
 
The Political Compass - Gauge

My results...

Economic Left/Right: -4.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -0.15

Strange...it appears that I'm on the borderline of libertarian and authoritarian, while being a bit more economically left. Interesting...I guess it's roughly representative, but idk for sure.

Lots of green (Economically Left and Libertarian) ppls in here. :o
 
On these kinds of things, I rarely select the extreme options. "Strongly Agree" or "Strongly Disagree". I find it difficult to define, combined with a few slightly ambiguous questions, I try to keep my responses simple.

I don't think that worked well for me. I ended up plotted between Mandella and the Dalai Lama. Both respectable and admirable people.

But, I consider myself a progressive conservative. Right of centre on economic/fiscal issues and centrist (maybe slightly left of centre rather) on social issues. That's not quite where the compass plotted me. lol I think I have to do it again and put some thought into selecting "strong" options.

Eh. Thought I'd be deeper in the green to be honest.

Economic Left/Right: -3.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.64

No surprise there. I'm actually a slight supporter of communism and I honestly believe it could be a good thing if we don't make the same mistakes Soviet Russia did.

...At the same time though this isn't completely accurate because I didn't understand some of the questions ._.; /my previous school was not the biggest on politics

Some questions I didn't understand, to be honest. I've never really learned too much about politics.

This is the one I took back in February. /as you can see I still didn't understand some of the questions

Looks like I've shifted to the right a bit and gone down. But as I already said, it isn't completely accurate.

@Donno: Can't help it while I now believe in the Profit motive, I'd rather have corporations work for the general good than destroying the environment and cheating on taxes plus acting like a person.

I was just pointing out that there isn't too much territory to the left of your result to move to the right from. ;P

I've drifted back toward the right economically a little since the last time I took this poll, but I'm more libertarian than I've ever been.

And I found my post in the old thread: https://www.pokecommunity.com/posts/5573937/

At least one of my predictions was right! 8D
 
Here are my results. What do you guys think? I'll probably blog about this later.

Not really surprised. Some of my views leading to one extreme has clashed with others to create a little less of Libertarian traits in me, but otherwise this is accurate.

They say that, generally speaking, as people get older, they'll drift towards the upper-right. Some slower than others and with different starting points, obviously. XD

This is evident in the fact that when I last took the test (in 2008), I was something like -4 ecomonic/0 social and when I took it for this thread, I was something like -3 economic/+1 social. :/
 
Took it yet again, this time with my mom helping to explain some of the questions to me. She didn't help me with all the ones I didn't get though, so it still isn't the most accurate. First are the first two I took, the first one being the one from last year and the second one being from earlier today:

And now here's the one I just took:

Economic Left/Right: -5.25
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.74

I'm even further down and left than I was the past two times. According to the sample charts, it looks like it's near the Dalai Lama's place on the Political Compass :>
 
Economic Left/Right: -0.50
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.67

Hmm...right between communism & anarchism. Woot! :cer_boogie:
